• Garden Beats: Don’t play the fool now, Foals is here to stay.

  

  With groovy bass riffs and memorable guitar parts as well as sing-along worthy lyrics, I was one hundred percent getting my LIFE from the band – they promised the audience “some good f*ckin’ rock n’roll” and good f*ckin’ rock n roll it was. BY GABRIELLE ANG

• COLLAPSE OF CONSTRUCTION | TAKING ACTION

We study a wide range of subjects together, take exams together, try not to fall asleep in class – together. And there’s something magical about that. A tight-knit community culture is something characteristic of Singapore. Because we’re a small country, we put in […]

• MUMBLED WORDS ON A PAGE by MARK OOI

  

  A poem that was born in the midst of contemplation, as lights went out in a room. What if someone, Switched off all the lights, And plunged us, Into the dark, Dancing, In shadows no longer existent, A dozen pirouettes, The waltz behind a hymn, Worries that plagued us, Now light as a feather.   […]

• HEART TO SAY SPECIAL WITH RACY LIM

  

  We corresponded with Racy Lim, the extremely cool person behind SAND magazine – and we did not regret asking her one more core question than usual. #LearntALot. Racy Lim’s words spoke to us in the way the conversations in page-turner novels are read – they echoed over and over again. Her thoughtfulness in curation – of SAND […]

• HEART TO SAY with ST. HUMAIN

  

  ST. HUMAIN, the man who is the man, aka amazing vocalist, producer and song-writer – he did not grill me for the pun I made when we had our first email exchange. It was word-play on the title of his song, that’s really amazing — please go listen to it. I’ll make it easier for you; the […]
